Do you use Photobucket?  That works really well.  Just copy and paste your image URL from Photobucket in the pop up box (Explorer User Prompt ) you'll get when you hit the IMAGE button below the Message box.  Make sure you take the http:// out of the pop up box first.

My problem with photobucket is, all my space is taken with family pictures.
I could delete them, but I'd have to sell my bows (that I'm trying to post pics of) to pay for the divorce.
Trap has posted to many for me all ready.

You have to use the "Full reply Form" Click on the "image" icon, remove the "http//" then paste the link. Click on preview and you should see your picture.
This is how the link should look when you paste it into the "image" box

I was able to use your link and get the picture, however you are going to need to resize it down to under 60 pixles as it's huge!

Kurt - I changed your string and got your image to load on the Preview Post. Your image is way too large, it can not be wider then 640.

You posted your string to be...

-  (http:// [URL=http://images.imagelinky.com/1233941254.JPG][IMG]http://im )

You have too many letters in your text
You need to eliminate the spaces
You need to change img to IMG
Upper & Lower Case must be exact...

The string that will work is this one, (less the first period inside the first open bracket), which I added just so the oversize image would not load...

I took your image, and edited it by cutting out everything except the bows, then re-sized it to be extra small...

Learning to edit your images, and save them as a smaller size will take less server space and permit you to load more images.

Hope you can understand my amateurish attempt at instructions...

If not let me know...
